A Couple of Volumes that Look Pretty Interesting

“Ware’s Synopsis of the Pauline Letters in Greek and Englishprovides students, pastors, and scholars with a powerful tool for comparing the Pauline letters. While there are other Pauline synopses, this is the only one that employs the Greek text with a critical apparatus as well as an English translation. By bringing together groups of related passages, Ware’s synopsis enables readers to see how the Pauline letters treat similar themes. This synopsis, which fills a long-standing need, is destined to become a standard tool for Pauline exegesis.”–Frank J. Matera, Andrews-Kelly-Ryan Professor of Biblical Studies, The Catholic University of America

Hooker, Lady Margaret’s Professor of Divinity Emerita, University of Cambridge
